Question re: Secret Diplomacy [closed]

Postby jmbailz on Wed Oct 13, 2010 11:24 am

I have been contacted by one of the other players in one of my games a few times. The first couple of times was a repeated message that I ignored, and the third one was different but all basically deal with what should be our strategy against the third player in the game, who is currently stronger than the other two of us. This third time I figured I couldn't just ignore it and hope it would go away so I emailed the person back and said we should move the conversation to the game chat so we weren't engaging in secret diplomacy.

However, the person has a fairly high rank, so I don't feel like I should have to tell them that emailing one of your two remaining opponents to gang up on the third guy is against the rules. So, I'm wondering if on top of telling him (or her) to move it to the game chat, should I also still report them? I don't want to accuse someone of cheating unless it really is.

Thanks!

It's cheating. Accuse away. Be sure to keep the pms that were sent to you.

Thank you for your honesty. Its up to us to try to keep this game fair and cheat free.

Just edit your post and fill in the xxxxx blanks and complete the form.

Notice I left you be because blue has too many territories to ignore. Do what you want, just making sure you see in a fog game & good luck.

Because I can see more than you right now there is nothing behind the 17 troops on your border for Blue. ALL ones (makes him weak). You do what you want but I lost my tail trying to drop his ports & now he has nothing so I will be able to help otherwise Blue wins. Good luck.

The time is now! If you do not attack blue now we will both lose. Your choice to keep coming towards me or go attack blue. I took EVERY bonus he could get away on my last turn so that you can take advantage. Your choice.

Hey - I think we should probably move this conversation to the game chat, otherwise this could be considered secret diplomacy.

Sorry, this is my first time doing this - do you mean I should click on the triangle (!)? None of the options for reporting the post seem to fit this situation.

Thanks everyone for the information/help!
